"The singularity on the edge of the map is nothing compared to the singularity at the center of a black hole. Here one finds the astrophysicist's singularity, a rift in the continuum of space and time where Einstein's rules no longer function. "

This is an example that physicists believe that the rules of GR break down at the singularity of a black hole.
